Ow! He Tom Bombadil'd me right in the Silmarils!

Okay, so I get my summer all nice and neatly figured out, content myself to the fact that I won't get to go to GenCon in August, (huge gaming convention in Indianapolis that I attended last year,) get my vacation time all nicely sorted out for my trip to Georgia. I've also accepted the fact that I've become a lousy L5R player who's lucky to even get one victory in a tournament. So what happens? Today I go to a L5R tournament, take first place, and win a free four-day pass to GenCon.

Oi Vey.

Well, now I guess I'll just have to see if by some miracle I can get someone to trade shifts with me for the two of the four days I'll be working and then figure out if I can get accomadations this close to time. If it doesn't work out, then I'll probably just give the pass to one of my friends. If it doesn, well then, I guess I'll just be on the road a lot this summer!

It will take several steps in my plan to get there, but I think I can do it. Fortunately, I've got a month and a half to figure it out.

Awesome, man! So were you playing Crab?

Yep. Tani Hitokage Weapon Smashy Action. I found out afterward that one of the guys I beat was the Kotei winner who nominated Norikazu. Talk about an ego boost! I guess that puts me back in the saddle following my losing streak :)

So will I see any of your gang there if I manage to make the trip?

tonight? Dunno who all will be around. Don will be here, and maybe some of the others. I'll be working, so you'll see me. :)

No I meant GenCon.
